The Special One · 04-19-11, 09:57 PM

you can add Busquets to that...

GMilst · 04-19-11, 10:03 PM

hahahah i might add him, that has to be a good bet too, if im not mistaken he pays like 2,2.

The Special One · 04-19-11, 10:13 PM

2.2??? should be 1.02 haha

Copa Del Rey isn't that important to Mourinho so I'm worried Mourinho might sub him off early to save him for more important matches. He was pretty crucial in defense during the Classico.

I disagree, he knows its extremely unlikely to beat Barca in the CL and so he will try his best to at least win this one... and plus that, the harder they play tomorrow, the more injured (potentially) and tired Barca will get... it could help for the 2 legs.

He was brought in to win the CL and league not to win the Spanish Cup. What is important to Barca is important to Madrid no matter how challenging the games will be.

well yeh, its important for Barca to win the CUP too and so Madrid will take is seriously... my point is that Mourinho knows this cup can be help 2 ways... 1) by winning he will show that he can beat Barca (again) and 2) it will boost Real's confidence into the 2 legs of CL... either way, the game should be fantastic.

I believe all 3 are crucial. But this the less of the 3. I believe Jose might try to change his tactics for this match. On Saturday Real played very conservative...and yet still almost lost at home.

I dont see Real winning at all in 90 mins.

mourinho never beat barca, the 3-1 inter win at san siro was fixed..

JOHON8 · 04-19-11, 10:45 PM

If I was Mourinho I would scrap any kind of defensive plan for this game.

Try something offensive and see if you can use it for the CL game. This is a perfect opprotunity because it's the 1st leg in Barcelona where they are expected to lose anyways. So why not go all-in? If it works out then Barca should be pretty nervous about the rest of the season, if not then you have rested your players from trying to defend all game.

I think he'll still in any case play physically! Watch out last game Barca players were more tired IMO!

And the Madrid bench is better!

Basically I think Mourinho will try to burn them! Maybe that was one of the reasons he also didn't put Ozil last game from the start! If he puts Ozil at the beginning he'll be followed by Barca players and he'll get tired!

He make him get in when Barca is tired already! Same thing he may do with Benzema! He may star Adebayor just to play hard with the Barca defense.

Also u can watch Barca have some players they can't change!

Guardiola will risk again with Puyol which may lead to an injury. He also wont take out Iniesta, Messi or Xavi.

But still not clear what Mourinho will do! I think we;ll know just when the lineups come out.

It doesnt need an explanation

if you guys watch Madrid games you will understand it. Anyway thats the only bet i have for that game. Best of luck to anyone who choses to tail.

I'm afraid about it!

In fact I think we may see even some red cards again!

I think maybe today u don't have to worry!

Undiano Mallenco will be the referee! He fvcking loves to show cards!

I like this prop GMlist! A pitty pinnacle does not have this option...

p3re · 04-20-11, 04:06 AM

BTW does any of you guys like Madrid ML at 3.9?? I think that these odds are the highest we will see in a game for Real Madrid... I am a Barcelona Fan, but I do really think this 3.9 has lots of value on it. Mourinho is good at finals..

pouroupoupou · 04-20-11, 04:34 AM
